A couple of things:
- GPL is not allowed in PECL
- using GPL for libraries is totally pointless and makes the lib almost useless
I would read the php ext code once the license has been changed :)

That being said, I wonder how easier it could be than:
<?php
foreach(simplexml_load_file($url)->entry as $it) echo $it->content;
?>
That's hard to beat :)
